ITALY ALARMED.

Relations of Bismarck and the Pope Cause
Uneasy Feeling in Government Circles.
Cable Special
The strong and sudden friendship that Bis
N arck has been manifestng for the Pope creates
feeling of unrest in italian government circles,
and there is large and growing party here who
satisfied that the house of Savoy must find
some means of concilating the Pope-k king if it is
to continue to reign in Italy for another genera
ton. The revival of papal influence and the
spectacle of great states and empires competing
for the patronage of the successor of the Fisher
man, whose apostolic friendship is invoked to
terminate dangerous international quarres, is
not lost on the mel IL power to-day IN the
Quirinal.
4. 4 modus vivendi is already authoritatively
put forward by which the Pope is to have
special territory, including the Leonine city and
part of the Tiber bank, given him absolutely
and then that he shall crown Umherto as his
suzeralne ruler of the Kingdom of Italy. The
King Is 70 reside in Rome. and help to maintain,
by q fixed amount. the expenses of the papal
household. 1t is said that strong influence is
at work in the Vatican circles TO have this
cepted. Whether 1t is or not. it Is certain that
something of the nature will soon be accom-
plished.
In regard to the rumor .hat the Pope has Of
fered to mediate between France and Germany,
Umberto's Minister, Depretis. says: I'VE believe
this mediation would be dffculS if not impos-
sible. For France would only consent to treat
the basis of restitution of her conquered
provinces which the treaty of Frankfort
nexed to Germany, and we cannot imagine Ger
many spontaneously yielding them. However.
the feeling which prompted the sovereign
Pontih to suggest a mediation deserves the
highest praise, and is worthy of his great soul
If Leo XIII succeeded in reconciline those two
ancient rivals he would enhance his own great
ness. and take foremost place among the bepe-
factors of mankind. The reconciliation of
France and Germany means long continued
peace for Europe, general disarmament, and
millions or men and money for industry and
art We fear the initiative of the Pope will fall
through for some wounds are hard to heal but
applaud his efforts. and. in spite of the diff
culties. hope that he will continue his noble mis-
sion of peace, which will rebound to the lasting
glory of his name and of the Holy See"
All indications point to the conclusion that
s'the grip Of the Vatican" is getting unpleasantly
tight on the policy of the Italian government.

horn. Fastening TO the edge of the water. they
peered through the darkness, rain and fog to To-
cate the position of the blowing steamer. Pres
ertly rockets were observed to shoot up toward
the heavens in rapid succession, showing that
the unknown craft was in need of assistance.
The vessel was only about four hundred
yards frou land, but the heavy gale
and tremendous sea prevented boats being sent
to her rescue. Torches and tar-barrels were
burned along the beach, and bells sounded in or
der to give the imperled people an idea of their
position, but beyond this 1t was absolutely i'm
possible to make any attempt to aid the vessel.
The signals made shore could be seen on
board the vessel, and heartrending cries from
those in distress were borne in on the gale.
About 2:20 o'clock, two hours after the first
alarm was given, the ship made plunge and
disappeared beneath the sea-
The storm continued till daybreak, when it
subsidized sufficiently to allow boats to put off to
the scene Of the nights catastrophe. Plenty of
wreckage was found floating about. from
which the ill-fated steamer found to
be the John Knox, Captain Brolly, from
Glasgow, bound to Quebec. with cargo of
iron, liquors and brick. The bodies of the cap
tain and fifteen of the crew have been recovered.

dozen bodies still missing. The John Knox was
an iron steamer of 1851 tons register. and was
built in 1883. She was owned by Neil Mclean,
of Glasgow.

THE WHEN STORES are. 1t is like this:
Other dealers ''go East to buy goods of whole

to their stores and retail them to you. Thus
you pay the factory price and pay the dealers
their price for ''going East to buy the goods.
With THE WHEN it is different, because
THE WHEN is factory which ships the

that when you buy your clothes here you get
them for the same price that other dealers
